Synopsis:

One of the most celebrated books in architectural history, this volume consists of the Adam brothers' own selections of illustrations from their high-profile commissions. Dating from the 1770s, these 106 illustrated plates epitomize the style that influenced generations of British and American architectural and furniture designs.

Synopsis: The Brothers Adam were almost single-handedly responsible for infusing Georgian Architecture with the sensibilities and elements of classical Helenic and Latinate design. This illustrated volume details the origins and genesis of the famous Adam Style, and features numerous examples of the Adams' elegant and intricate design.
